The chest of Mahārāja Pṛthu was very broad, his waist was very thick, and his abdomen, wrinkled by lines of skin, resembled in construction a leaf of a banyan tree. His navel was coiled and deep, his thighs were of a golden hue, and his instep was arched. ।। 4-21-16 ।।

व्यञ्जिताशेषगात्रश्रीर्नियमे न्यस्तभूषणः । कृष्णाजिनधरः श्रीमान् कुशपाणिः कृतोचितः ।। ४-२१-१८ ।।

sanskrit

As Mahārāja Pṛthu was being initiated to perform the sacrifice, he had to leave aside his valuable dress, and therefore his natural bodily beauty was visible. It was very pleasing to see him put on a black deerskin and wear a ring of kuśa grass on his finger, for this increased the natural beauty of his body. It appears that Mahārāja Pṛthu observed all the regulative principles before he performed the sacrifice. ।। 4-21-18 ।।

english translation

चूँकि महाराज को यज्ञ सम्पन्न करने के लिए दीक्षित किया जा रहा था, अत: उन्हें अपने बहुमूल्य वस्त्र उतारने पड़े थे, जिससे उनका प्राकृतिक शारीरिक सौन्दर्य दृष्टिगोचर हो रहा था। उन्हें काला मृग चर्म पहने तथा उँगली में कुश-वलय (पैती) पहने देखकर अच्छा लग रहा था, क्योंकि इससे उनकी शारीरिक कान्ति बढ़ गई थी। ऐसा प्रतीत होता है कि यज्ञ के पूर्व महाराज पृथु समस्त विधि-सम्मत कृत्य सम्पन्न कर चुके थे। ।। ४-२१-१८ ।।

Just to encourage the members of the assembly and to enhance their pleasure, King Pṛthu glanced over them with eyes that seemed like stars in a sky wet with dew. He then spoke to them in a great voice. ।। 4-21-19 ।।

english translation

सभा के सदस्यों को प्रोत्साहित करने तथा उनकी प्रसन्नता को बढ़ाने के लिए राजा पृथु ने, ओस से नम आकाश में तारों के समान नेत्रों से, उन पर दृष्टि फेरी और फिर गम्भीर वाणी में उनसे कहा। ।। ४-२१-१९ ।।

महाराज पृथु की वाणी अत्यन्त सुन्दर, आलंकारिक भाषा से युक्त, सुस्पष्ट तथा श्रुतिमधुर थी। उनके शब्द अत्यन्त गभ्भीर तथा अर्थवान् थे। ऐसा प्रतीत हो रहा था मानो वे बोलते समय परम सत्य सम्बन्धी अपनी निजी अनुभूति व्यक्त कर रहे थे जिससे वहाँ पर उपस्थित सभी लोग लाभ उठा सकें। ।। ४-२१-२० ।।
